Euralarm has produced a guidance document that provides micro and small service companies with a checklist when subcontracting the operation and maintenance of the Remote Access Infrastructure (RAI) to a Remote Infrastructure Service Provider (RAISP).
The guidance aims to provide an explanation of the main elements of the Remote Access Infrastructure, including drawings from the standards, and three checklists allowing the service companies to make a self-assessment of their readiness and compliance with the provisions laid down in EN 16763, EN 50710 and CLC/TS 50136-10.
The EN 50710:2021 Requirements for the provision of secure remote services for fire safety systems and security systems has been drafted by CEN/CLC/JTC 4 and published by CEN-CENELEC in 2021.

Copies of the new Euralarm Guidance document can be downloaded from the Euralarm website. This guidance shall be used as a complement to the published standards. The text from the latter takes precedence on the one from the guidance.
